forgot what car u drive, but i haven't seen any coilover that can make the car higher than stock for a long time (so i dun even remember if that exists!)

some, even set to highest spot, can still be 15mm less than stock....

for some cars, like honda with koni shocks, u can run stock springs and put it one groove higher; friend tried that and eventually the lock ring underneath doesn't hold (probably rusted out and way too much stress from spring pressure), it breaks and damaged the strut body too...will take weeks to order that lock ring and he was sooooo screw...

so far i am driving all my lowered cars around okay, as long as it's not slammed (always, try to have 1 finger gap at least), all u need is snow tires

CP: he is saying raising 5cm, still a lot, ppl normally lower 25 to 50mm (and it can already be slammed)

btw librazhy, what u have to worry is transmission / radiator / radiator support (part of the body, which is quite weak) / exhaust will scrap the most...dun worry about ur axle, sway bar, brakelines, those usually shouldn't be in the way...

exhaust is usually quite hot so it might melt some snow or ice, oil pan / transmission / radiator is what ppl are having problem these days...
